Angel POV
An: i know you didn't want to hurt those people phoenix... you didn't want to hurt the town... or me
V: GRRRRRRRRRRRRR
This isn't any good, she's too tense right now. I hear the bed move and see Iris get up and start to run over. I hold a hand out to her to make her stop. Pheonix is overwhelmed right now if she has ANY chance of breaking free she needs to focus
An: p-please, she just sees you as a threat, she's scared
I: what? but i-
An: just trust me, please, i know what I'm doing... just back away for now, i-i'll call you over
I: *gulp* o-okay
She backs away and i focus on Phoneix again who seems to be struggling with herself. I slide down the wall so that I'm at eye level with her
An: come on, where's my lil cuddle monster huh?
V: SHE'S NOT HERE-
P: *whimper*
V: you didn't hear that-
An: i just wanna see her again... i just wanna see that cute lil smile-
Her paws catch fire again and she swipes at me but thankfully misses
P: h-help me-
Oh my God-
An: I'm right here nix, I'm right here-
Her mouth starts to smoke up again. I cross my arms over my face and get my arms burned again. Tis a flesh wound. She keeps coming closer
V: WHY THE HELL ARE THEY SO HARD TO CONTROL, FUCK IT I'M PUTTING HER ON AUTIO PILOT
L: THERE'S A FUCKING AUTO PILOT????
H: i don't think she means like a plane it's probably just more aimless anger like during the attack-
P: GRRRRRRRRRRRR
An: you're not helping guys, get out of her view, please
They walk away and Iris makes sure to hide behind the bed. I hold my hand out as she comes closer
An: look at me, you know me, she's gone nix just f-focus on me
P: GRRRRR- a-angGRRRRR
She's trying to say my name, isn't she? She keeps moving forward while working up fire in her mouth, dangerously close to me
An: y-yeah nix that's it, say it, who am i?
P: *whimper*
She starts puffing out fire, i can feel the heat on the palm of my hand
An: what's my name nix?
P: a-an... GRRRRRR...
I put my hand on her head making her pause... she's looking right into my eyes
An: I'm right here...
I signal Iris to come over. Nixs' ear flicks and then she starts growling again when she realizes Iris is still here
An: hey, hey, hey, she's not going to hurt you... i promise, she won't hurt you, it's okay
P: *whimper*
She starts to jerk around more
I: virus is coming back we gotta hurry up
An: get the chain
I: what?
An: b-break the chain, you gotta trust me
I: ... okay sure yeah
Phoenix turns around and runs at Iris as she gets to the area the chain is attached to
An: nix. sit.
P: *sits*
Shit, that worked... maybe because she's in some sort of wolf form she's in her pup space... i can work with that
V: what the FUCK?-
An: stay
P: GRRRRR
An: don't growl at me, now stay
Iris unlocks the chain and runs to a safe spot
An: now
Pheonix runs over to me-
An: sit
P: *sits*
V: this is bull shit what THE FUCK
An: good girl *inhale* n-now iris *exhale*
I gotta calm down, owners have to be firm but gentle, i can't make this work if I'm all jittery. Iris walks up to us and i ask her one last time
An: who am i nix?
P: a-angel
Iris touches the mirror to Phonix and her eyes flash. I watch the fur and claws retract as she closes her eyes. Iris backs away as Pheonix starts to tear up and open her eyes
An: ... nix?
P: *whimper* angel
I let out a sigh of relief
An: there you are nixxy
P: o-oh angel
Iris opens the cell door as Phonix leans forward and lays her head on my shoulder... she slowly falls asleep...
P: *chuckle* exhausted lil monster
